This book addresses the complex relationship between the values of liberal democracy and the values associated with scientific research. The chapters explore how these values mutually reinforce or conflict with one another, in both historical and contemporary contexts. The contributors utilize various approaches to address this timely subject, including historical studies, philosophical analysis, and sociological case studies. The chapters cover a range of topics including academic freedom and autonomy, public control of science, the relationship between scientific pluralism and deliberative democracy, lay-expert relations in a democracy, and the threat of populism and autocracy to scientific inquiry. Taken together the essays demonstrate how democratic values and the epistemic and non-epistemic values associated with science are interconnected. Science, Freedom, Democracy will be of interest to scholars and graduate students working in philosophy of science, history of philosophy, sociology of science, political philosophy, and epistemology.

Scientific Freedom outlines what needs to be done to restore the freedom that can transform scientific understanding. The author defines Transformative Research (Venture Research) and explains how an initiative might be designed and implemented; discusses the revolutionary concept of low-risk, high-reward research; explains the wider significance of instability, and introduces the formidable Damocles Zone; explores threats to the university as an institution; and describes how a Transformative Research initiative might work in practice.

This book argues for two claims: firstly, determinism in science does not infringe upon human free will because it is descriptive, not prescriptive, and secondly, the very formulation, testing and justification of scientific theories presupposes human free will and thereby persons as ontologically primitive. The argument against predetermination is broadly Humean, or more precisely ‘Super-Humean’, whereas that against naturalist reduction is in large Kantian, drawing from Sellars on the scientific and the manifest image. Thus, whilst the book defends scientific realism against the confusion between fact and fake, it also reveals why scientific theories, laws and explanations cannot succeed in imposing norms for our actions upon us, neither on the level of the individual nor on that of society. Esfeld makes a strong case for an ontology of science that is minimally sufficient to explain our scientific and common sense knowledge, not only removing the concern that the laws of nature are incompatible with human freedom, but furthermore showing how our freedom is in fact a very presupposition for science.

This book is available as open access through the Bloomsbury Open Access programme and is available on www.bloomsburycollections.com. Scientific Freedom is the first comprehensive collection covering both the state of scientific progress and the ethics, law and history of scientific research. The book gives readers a fascinating range of perspectives on matters of scientific research that directly affect all of us. Examining the ethical, legal, social, economic and political issues surrounding freedom of scientific research, the book evaluates ways in which national and international policies can impact upon individuals' access to potentially life-saving treatment, cures and technologies, and can therefore affect human life and death. With contributions from Nobel Laureates, representatives of patients' associations, scientists, scholars and politicians, this book provides a concise and comprehensive view of the limitations and dangers facing the future of innovation and scientific progress.

"Freedom in Science and Teaching" (German: "Die Freiheit der Wissenschaft im modernen Staat") is a book written by Ernst Haeckel, a prominent German biologist, naturalist, and philosopher. Originally published in 1877, the book presents Haeckel's views on the relationship between science, education, and the state. Haeckel was a key figure in the development of evolutionary biology, and his works had a significant influence on the field. Key aspects of "Freedom in Science and Teaching" include: Scientific Freedom: The book is a passionate defense of scientific freedom. Haeckel argues that scientists must have the freedom to pursue their research and share their findings without undue interference from religious or political authorities. Evolution and Darwinism: Haeckel was an early proponent of Charles Darwin's theory of evolution, and he believed that the teaching of evolution was essential for the progress of science and human understanding. He discusses the importance of teaching evolutionary theory in schools and universities. Separation of Church and State: Haeckel advocates for a clear separation of church and state, asserting that religious dogma should not impede scientific progress or the education of future generations. Educational Reforms: The book calls for educational reforms that promote critical thinking, the scientific method, and the dissemination of knowledge. Haeckel believed that science should be at the forefront of education. Controversy: "Freedom in Science and Teaching" was highly controversial when it was published, as it challenged the religious and conservative establishment of the time. Haeckel's views on evolution and the relationship between science and religion sparked debates and legal challenges. Influence: Ernst Haeckel was a prominent advocate for Darwinism and made substantial contributions to the fields of biology, zoology, and evolutionary theory. His work and advocacy played a role in the wider acceptance of evolutionary ideas in Germany and beyond. "Freedom in Science and Teaching" remains a significant historical document in the context of the tension between science and religion in the late 19th century. Haeckel's book, along with his broader scientific and philosophical contributions, has left a lasting impact on the field of biology and the ongoing discussion of the role of science in education and society.

The book begins with familiar designs found all around and inside us (such as the ‘trees’ of river basins, human lungs, blood and city traffic). It then shows how all flow systems are driven by power from natural engines everywhere, and how they are endlessly shaped because of freedom. Finally, Professor Bejan explains how people, like everything else that moves on earth, are driven by power derived from our “engines” that consume fuel and food, and that our movement dissipates the power completely and changes constantly for greater access, economies of scale, efficiency, innovation and life. Written for wide audiences of all ages, including readers interested in science, patterns in nature, similarity and non-uniformity, history and the future, and those just interested in having fun with ideas, the book shows how many “design change” concepts acquire a solid scientific footing and how they exist with the evolution of nature, society, technology and science.
